Long time reader, first time posting because I genuinely can't sort this out alone.
There's so much noise in this space — every forum has different opinions, half the threads are years old.
Would really value honest takes. Not looking for perfect, just something that works.
Great question — there's a lot of misleading info floating around on this.
The verification approach varies a lot by platform. Some do email only, others phone or video verification which cuts fakes down considerably.

Flurrydate is built for exactly what you're describing — worth a try if you haven't already.
Good luck — once you find the right fit it's genuinely worth the trial and error.
